to threaten william?
"there is no brake, it can be dangerous if the elevator falls down"
I thought that sick marc is going to cause an accident
That was my interpretation. I certainly don't believe it had anything to do with concern, not after the really tense and confrontational conversation they had in William's office.
sharePerhaps not a physical threat but a warning that he'll be hurt or destroyed by a relationship with Anna? But I thought that too. It definitely comes under the heading of false foreshadowing.
I thought the scene where the real shrink suggests she may not even have a husband and may have rung his doorbell on purpose was similarly misleading. After that I kept expecting it to turn into Hitchcock territory.
This was a sweet and absorbing film but not one of Leconte's best.
False foreshadowing...
Especially given the sub-plot with the man afraid of elevators. Given the building's small number of floors the short fall would only affect someone who was already afraid.

Same here. I thought that Marc figured that at the least, William would be frightened into having to walk up six flights of stairs each time, a minor but still significant inconvenience.
